An Indianola day care provider is facing charges after police and prosecutors say she seriously injured a child she was looking after.

The Indianola police and fire departments were called to 1312 Detroit Ave. on Oct. 31, 2017, for a report of "a one-year-old in distress," according to a news release Friday from the Warren County Attorney's Office.

The child was taken to Blank Children's Hospital in Des Moines for her injuries and a subsequent investigation found Heather McKasson, 34, was responsible for injuring the child.
